Today, we’re thrilled to bring you one of our favourite shows - the noirish sci-fantasy western MIDST 💎

But! This episode is slightly different. We got the opportunity to sit down with Xen, Sara and Matt (the show’s three mysterious creators) to discuss the making of both Midst and Mockery Manor. We’ve been admiring each others’ shows since their respective beginnings, so it was a real treat to chat with them!

Head to the Mockery Manor feed to listen, then subscribe to Midst in the usual podcast places!

Lindsay LongCat has written a post about Joseph Heller's peculiar writing process, and his less peculiar second job. If you're wondering what this has to do with Mockery Manor: she briefly mentions it in connection to spreadsheets (gosh, what juicy clickbait this is!)

Long Cat Media published a post on Ko-fi

There probably won’t be a fully realised Claytonville map (because the Mockery one took bloody ages).
BUT, we thought you might like to see Lindsay LongCat’s park map, referred to during the making of S3.
A few things on here that didn’t make the cut! And if you look hard, a few spoilers, so make sure you’re up to date before perusing in detail 🧐

Just in! Mockery Manor Season 3 has been nominated for BEST SITCOM OR COMEDY DRAMA at the BBC Audio Drama Awards 2024.

Very gratifying to be recognised for S3. Big thanks to our actors, and to Arts Council England for supporting the series.

Merry Festives, all! 🎄
A couple of quick reminders before we close up shop for the Winterval.

THE MATTY TAPES is our new Mockery miniseries! What’s Matty been up to for the last six years? What schemes has he been cooking up? And who is the new apple of his eye? 🦃
We’re pleased with this one! It’s a fun accompaniment to the main series, and it sets up the future S4 quite nicely…

It’s 3 episodes, and it’s available for £3.99 from our Ko-fi shop. Link in the comments below.

Also, our esteemed listener Alex has founded the subreddit r/MockeryManor - head over to Reddit to chat with other listeners about all things Mockery, the Magentaverse and Anne & Mary.

THE MATTY TAPES - out now! 🦃

Our new bonus miniseries is available from our Ko-fi shop (link in comments below)!

Set in 1990, 1991 and 1996, The Matty Tapes spans a fair chunk of the Mockery timeline, and offers a peek at what’s been going on behind closed doors…

All sales help us keep going, and we have big plans for 2024, so we really appreciate them! We hope you enjoy this miniseries 😺

The Matty Tapes.
A Mockery Manor bonus miniseries - coming some time next week. It'll be available for £3.99 from our Ko-fi shop, and free for our monthly supporters.
But the big question is: how could this song POSSIBLY be part of it?

Guys guys, we just finished Dead Loch on Amazon Prime and it’s *so good*. It’s kind of a spiritual sister to Mockery, so it’s no surprise it was right up our street. Highly recommended. Ugh so good, so good, ugh *chef’s kiss*

01/12/2023

Little announcement! Our esteemed listener Alex has set up r/MockeryManor over on Reddit. This is a space for listeners to discuss all aspects of Mockery Manor, the Magenta Cinematic Universe™ and any other Long Cat Media creations.
We've opted not to get involved, so that listeners can speak freely without us loitering threateningly. But we'd really like it to become an active community, so please do head on over to Reddit and join the conversation!

Lindsay and Laurence sit down to discuss the S3 soundtrack and writing process.
